A new sponsor, Internet Chess Club has come on board for the three national invitational events: GM Denker Tournament of High School Champions (denkerchess.com), the Dewain Barber Tournament of K-8 Champions (barberchess.com) and the USCF National Girls Invitational Tournament.

ICC will provide a two year free membership to all participants of these events and if a current participant is already a member then they will receive an extension of two years on their current membership. This two-year membership valued at $123.95 will become available upon completion of the six rounds of one of the above events.

We look forward to all State Affiliates sending in the names of those who will represent their state as soon as possible. State nominees must confirm with Jon Haskel ([email protected]) that they are going to play in their respective events.
